Ayurveda

Christy is a certified Ayurvedic Health Counselor and a Clinical Ayurvedic Medicine Intern with the California Collage of Ayurveda. She works with students and clients in person at Wallingford Yoga and Ayurveda, in Seattle, WA, or online over Zoom.

Christy’s practice emerged out of a desire to help people heal – whether from an injury, a chronic health condition, or in finding balance amid the demands of daily life. She meets students where they are, offering tools to support healthy change. Often, just one simple recommendation at a time, and shifting that compass needle just a tiny bit, can offer significant positive shifts!

    Introductory Package

    5 sessions (online or in-person): $320  [value $450]

    As part of Christy’s final Ayurvedic Clinical Internship (through February 2026), she is currently offering 5-session packages at this big discount. She will be working with Supervisor and Ayurvedic Doctor, Melanie Macdonald!

    What to expect:

    1. First Session: We will do a thorough intake exploring long-term and short-term health and lifestyle patterns. Christy will also look at your tongue and, if in-person at her studio, she will take deep and superficial pulse readings.

    2. Second Session: Based on information gathered in our first session, you will learn about your “prakruti” or natural constitution. You can think of this in part as relating to your genetic makeup that you were born with. We’ll also explore your “vikruti” or areas where you may be experiencing imbalance or health issues. A couple of initial recommendations will be offered to get you started towards balance, whether it be incorporating herbs, a simple shift in diet, or lifestyle. We work sustainably, one step at a time, progress over perfection.

    3. Third – Fifth Sessions: We will do a check-in with diagnostic tools from the first intake session. Based on how you are feeling, how previous recommendations work for you, and your current interests, new recommendations will be offered. Often, clients find that regular support for the first few weeks and months can be very helpful as they establish new patterns.
